Our Newest Podcast Project: Mapping HIV
Mapping HIV will explore the virus’s origins, the early years of the AIDS epidemic, and the advances that have transformed prevention and treatment.
We’re in pre-production.
We’ve just recently won the grant to support this podcast docu-series, and we’re in full swing with our pre-production efforts. That means lots of research and reaching out to scientists, policy-makers, and people who lived the stories we want to share. We’ll keep this page updated on our progress as we develop the Mapping HIV podcast.
In the meantime, we’ll share a little bit about what we’re doing during this pre-production phase.
Research
Most of what we’re doing is diving into research, which as a team of research scientists is sort of what we do best. We’re digging into the history, science, and experience of HIV through time.
Teaming Up
We’re actively building our production team. We are working to figure out who will be doing what throughout this process, and to recruit people for the roles that we haven’t filled yet.
Listening
The single most important thing we’re doing right now is reaching out to the people whose stories we’re trying to tell and listening intently to what they have to say.
Story Boarding
We’ll be taking everything we learn and gather during this phase and organizing it into a storyboard of the podcast that we’ll produce for you.
“Whether you’re living with HIV, supporting someone who is, working in healthcare or education, or simply curious about how the science has changed, we’re making this series with you in mind.”
